Corrupt Texas AG Ken Paxton impeached

In a rare demonstration of morality and justice, the Texas House impeached our horrible shit bird Attorney General. Paxton has dodged getting punished for a decade because he’s been a criminal since the day he decided to run. Don’t believe the pundits who say the House is dominated by “more moderate Republicans.” It’s still composed of Ammosexuals, ‘phobes and corporate stooges. There’s a snit going on between the TX GOP and the AG has finally become enough of a liability that they’re jettisoning him, namely how much the taxpayers have to pony up for settling a whistleblower lawsuit he lost.

We in Austin have no good expectations. The Texas Senate will determine his fate. This body contains Paxton’s wife (so much for overthrowing England’s inbred monarchy); given how the Republicans have no shame, she won’t recuse herself; and our Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, a living MAGA corpse, will protect a crony. Even if Paxton is removed from office (currently, he’s suspended until the outcome), Governor Abbott will install a different shit bird who will just be more discrete with his insider trading and profiteering. I figure he has to give Abbott and Patrick a cut too.
